DAY 1 // THURSDAY

Ignite staff will greet you at Puerto Vallarta Airport (PVR). Check-in to your boutique accommodations and settle in. Enjoy cocktails at sunset on the beach while hearing the inspirational story of our San Pancho community partner. Then a leisurely stroll to a top-rated restaurant with delicious, locally-sourced cuisine.

DAY 2 // FRIDAY

After breakfast we embark on a guided walking tour through San Pancho ending up at the amazing facility of EntreAmigos, our community partner. Enjoy a ceviche lunch with their team leaders and then spend the afternoon engaging with youth or women involved in their high-impact programs. The evening will include a tequila tasting before heading off to taste some local cuisine at an authentic taqueria.

DAY 3 // SATURDAY

Enjoy optional activities like beach yoga or a beach run, or simply take this time to explore San Pancho a bit on your own. Spend the morning at Entreamigos for further engagement with the women entrepreneurs and do a bit of shopping at the gallery, where they sell their artisan crafts. Return to the hotel for lunch and a quick change- this afternoon we will be doing a hike to a local beach. Finish the day with a chef-curated, farm to table meal that you won’t forget! Extend your evening with optional late night drinks and live music in town.

DAY 4 // SUNDAY

The group will have one final breakfast together with a cooking lesson where you can reflect on the brief but inspirational journey. Ignite staff will facilitate your transportation to the Puerto Vallarta Airport (PVR) in time to catch your flight home.
